Crawford and Lomachenko are around the same size. Should they fight?

Loma couldn't beat Salido, so I don't know why anyone has any interest in seeing Loma fight Crawford. The inactive Gamboa that fought Crawford would've made easy work out of Loma.

 

Gamboa was very quick and explosive at the lower weights, but was very easy to hit in the exchange, and Loma is a ****ing sharpshooter. It would be interesting for the early to mid rounds but I think Loma takes over and starts battering a tired Gamboa down the stretch.

 

Totally and they were very honest about it saying Bud is a natural Welterweight but we wanted to put him in the lower weight classes as we playing the long game.

 

That Salido thing always comes across as lame like you’re trying to grasp onto that loss like it actually means anything now.
And in all seriousness I don’t think anyone does have an interest in Lomo v Crawford just like we had no interest in Floyd v GGG as it’s just not a fair fight.
Bud would maul Lomo

 

There's an inch difference so they should definitely fight right here and now. Who cares about the official two weight division difference?, @uppercut_to_the_body on BoxingForum24 sees zero difference in size thanks to Google Images.

Do you even know how to properly wipe your backside after taking a dump in daddy's backyard?. The only cure to your stupidity is the gas chamber.

 

Dumb. Loma could absolutely beat Salido and if you have doubts rewatch the fight. He even won one of the scorecards.

 

If Loma could've beaten Salido he would of did it, but he failed. He also wouldn't give Salido a rematch and has fought weak competition since that fight until the Linares fight, but Linares has no power or durability.


Loma fought an old and past prime Salido and lost. Salido easily won at least 7 rounds. Loma came on strong in the later rounds when Salido started to tire due to age, but by then it was too late. I gave Loma 5 rounds at most, since in the first 7-8 rounds Loma was missing most of his punches and was absorbing body punch after body punch.

Gamboa beating a younger and Prime Salido.

Salido had literally everything on his side that night. He was a weight division above, had the judges on his size, venue and referee. The fact that you bring up that fight as if it was a fair fight shows how much of a sad ignorant imbecile you truly are.

 

145 vs 165.

 

Just cause he didn't do it, doesn't mean he can't.

1. The fight could've gone either way, hence the split decision.
2. Salido came in overweight at the weigh in, which gave him an unfair advantage.
3. The ref was unfair, and allowed Salido to foul with impunity.

Taking even 1 of those 3 factors into account, you're lying to yourself if you truly think Loma couldn't beat Salido.

 

Crawford is clearly the bigger man I doubt Loma has ever been above 150lbs walk around weight, while Crawford as seen walks around at 177lbs.

But having said that, if Loma is as great as some suggest a move up to welterweight isn't out of the question. If Pac and Duran could come from such a low weight and succeed why not Loma?

It's obviously a big ask not many greats reach the heights of Pac or Duran but if Loma has the ambition and desire to prove himself among the true greats then a move up to welter isn't so crazy. But if he's content to not reach those heights then that's fine as well, not many could do what Pac and Duran did, there's no shame in that.

 

They tried to get the Salido rematch on multiple occasions. Loma said he doesn't particularly care about the loss anyway, his fans/detractors make a bigger deal out of it than he does.

 

BTW Salido could go full 12, he threw like 1.2k punches in his later fights after Lomachenko (like a 2 years later), non stop punching for full 12 rounds. It wasn't him tiring or anything like that. Loma was just starting to figure him out/body shots started affecting him.

 

This very much. It's a good thing for Salido that a) the first fight wasn't a 15 rounder like in days gone by or b) they couldn't work out the rematch.

 

Feel free to ignore anything I post. But if you side with pointless trolls, then more power to ya.
